Fall Knitalong Design Survey
I'm so excited to share the style options for our upcoming knitalong, slated to kick off in mid October. At Knit Collage, we host two knitalongs (KALs) a year and they are what myself and the small but might team here lives for. We work on behind the scenes all year long. Leaning into a virtual community of creatives, especially during these trying times, is what it's all about. We connect with other makers, knit in community, cheer each other on, learn new things and finish with an heirloom handknit to treasure for years to come. In a completely non-preachy way, I also put a self care bent on the KAL and focus on how good knitting, creativity and making are for us! The design winners are chosen by popular vote so here is your chance to have your voice heard and counted. Feel free to share with friends! I would so appreciate your help and input to make this our best to date. Please let me know in the comments below what you're rooting for. If any of these intimidate you - please keep in mind that I teach you how to knit each style from start to finish in an online class that is yours forever. Last spring, many knitters tackled their first sweater ever!
Option 1: Plaid Party Cardi
We use slipped stitches to create this fun spin on a traditional plaid pattern.
Option 2. Exhale Sweater
A simple colorwork sweater worked top down with two sleeve options - flared and straight sleeves.
Option 3: Glow Girl Cardi
This cardi mixes three of our yarns in a simple zig zag stitch, optional hood!
4. Flower Power Cardi
Two large scale flowers adorn this cardi use the intarsia technique!
Option 5. Kaleidoscope Sweater
This sweater was part of our spring 2020 Knitalong (KAL) but we may do it again if it wins the popular vote! See the solid version below that we are also considering.
Option 6. Plaidtastic Scarf
A smaller project that will still be a blast to knit!
Option 7. Flower Power Shawl
A simple design to try out intarsia!
Option 8. Mixed Stitch Sweater (name TBD eek!)
Thank you so much for letting me know your faves! I so hope you'll vote and if you feel moved to, join me in the upcoming KAL (knitalong!). To be the first to know about the KAL, sign up for KAL only related emails/updates here.
Big hugs,
Amy
P.S. I'm rooting for the Plaid Party Cardi & the Glow Girl Cardi :)
